The Pulse Tour With Tyce Diorio Returning to London this month, we caught up with Pulse member Tyce Diorio in between his very busy schedule.

Tyce Diorio is joining Brian Friedman and the gang on The Pulse live tour this year and what an experience it has been for him! Although he has worked with professional artists in the past, this latest job is like no other. Here’s what Tyce had to say about his fellow colleagues, advice for aspiring performers and his top choreographers in the world of arts. L’ART: What are your highlights about being part of the faculty? Tyce: I love how different all of us are and how inspired by each other we can get. Also, it truly is like a family. But the best is seeing our work and vision come through in each dancer that spends the time and effort having put in the work at Pulse. L’ART: You’ve got experience dancing for several artists including Paula Abdul and Jennifer Lopez and have featured in videos for Janet Jackson. How was it working alongside a member of such a loved musical family? Tyce: Absolutely the best experience and most fulfilling. Janet is one of a kind.

how does the experience on stage differ to that of a music video/TV show set? Tyce: Being on stage eight times a week really strengthens your skills as a performer. There is nothing like it and to be utilizing your singing and acting as well as your dancing is so amazing. L’ART: Do you have a preference? Tyce: I love it all the same. L’ART: As a renowned choreographer, when starting a new project, what inspires your creative mind? Tyce: Energy, music, conception, direction and just the idea of creating art. L’ART: Today, which dancers or choreographers in the industry have a place in your top spots? Tyce: The choreographers Peter Darling, Matthew Bourne, Jiri Kylian, Crystal Pite, and dancers Wil Loftis, Jeremy Hudson and Kathryn McCormick.
